Categories     Cheese

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 onion, diced (about 1/2 cup)
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 serrano peppers, diced
3 jalapeno peppers, diced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
6 cups cheese, shredded (can use any combination of Longhorn cheddar and Monterrey Jack)
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
2 plum tomatoes, peeled and diced (about 1 cup, can use canned if tomatoes aren't in season)
1/2 cup sour cream
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a saucepan on medium-low heat, and then cook the onions and peppers for about five minutes or until onions are translucent.
  • Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Whisk the flour into the butter, vegetable mix and cook for about 30 seconds.
  • Add the milk to the pot, and cook on medium, whisking constantly until sauce is thick, about five minutes. Stir in the cilantro and tomatoes.
  • Turn heat down to low, and a 1/4-cup at a time, slowly add the shredded cheese stirring into the white sauce until completely melted. Repeat.
  • Stir in the sour cream.
  • Add salt to taste.
  • Notes: You can vary which chiles you use to control how hot you want the queso to be. Also, if the sauce is too thick, feel free to add a bit more milk a tablespoon at a time. The key, however, to a smooth sauce is adding the cheese very slowly and not adding any more cheese until the previous addition is completely integrated into the sauce.
